In a 1951 Los Angeles Times interview Neville discussed the deeper meaning of the commandment against stealing.

Adjudication: These describe two different things - a specific dated 1951 LA Times interview versus a vague 1976 recollection (25 years after the fact) of when Neville began 'teaching in the area' - not competing dates for the same event. The contemporaneous interview date is solid, but this group likely conflates two distinct claims and should be reviewed rather than treated as a clean either/or contest.
